The TMT 800LS gate operator, much like a car, will provide many years of excellent service if a service schedule is carried out at regular intervals. Follow these basic checks and do repairs in time to get the most out of your operator.

WEEKLY

• Clear away any dirt, sand, stones or foliage collected on the gate rail.
• Clear away any branches, shrubs or grass that might interfere with the movement of the gate.

MONTHLY

• Check for damage or cracks to the motor lid. Although the operator lid is designed for outside conditions, stones and severe hail may damage it. A cracked lid should be immediately replaced as water and dirt will damage the operator.
• Check physical end stops are secure and in place
• Check for insect and reptile infestations.
• It is recommended that moth balls be placed inside the operator housing to discourage these infestations which can cause damage.

EVERY 6 MONTHS

• Place the motor into manual mode and test the gate by opening and closing slowly, take note of any tight sections you may feel.
• Check for any battery leaks if you have added a battery, these can cause damage to the wiring.
• Check that the controller and other accessories are firmly in place and are not hanging loose.
• Check that the limit brackets on the racking have not shifted.
• Check guide rollers on the gate.
• Check all brackets are secure.
• Check the motor is firmly in place and cannot move.
• Check the rack for any damaged teeth.
